The sun (not the earth!) is the center of our solar system. Here are some interesting facts of this quintessential planet to live on earth that we so easily take for granted. Not to mention some really really awesome pictures of it taken from boston.com.
Containing more than 99.8% of the total mass of the Solar System, the Sun is by far the largest object in the Solar System.
109 Earths would be required to even fit across the Sun’s disk, and the Sun’s interior could hold over 1.3 million Earths.
